Omega Summoner

Chapter 1929: How Merchants Fight

”Money Punch!” Piggy Bank shouted as he shattered a Storm Guard.

==

Monster Name: Storm Guard

Monster Tier: Rare

Monster Type: Golem

Monster Level: 250

HP: 100%

MP: None

Description: A golem that has been naturally created by the dungeon by harnessing the power of lightning from the outside. It was not created with an intended purpose hence it is just wandering aimlessly inside the Storm Chasm. It cannot use any spells but getting touched by the Storm Guard will send an electric shock coursing through oneʼs body.

Piggy Bank was able to easily defeat the monster thanks to his powerful skill called Money Punch. It is one of the select few skills that a merchant can use when in battle. Just because they are players that focuses more on money does not mean that they cannot defend themselves.

This skill is a powerful hit skill that can actually knock down any other low health target. If charged to full or if they pay the compensation, the merchant players can dish out powerful attacks that can kill. Piggy Bank is enjoying defeating the monsters as he could see his experience rising while being protected by Adrianʼs soulbounds.

Adrian made sure to summon Wisteria to aid Piggy Bank as his other soulbounds would utterly destroy low level opponents. Even if the experience points that he gains is not large, he makes do by practicing his origin magic. Adrian is using space, time, and even force magic to buff and protect Piggy Bank as well.

Adrian just summoned Wisteria for assurance should anything unexpected happens. He also has Sirius lurking beneath Piggy Bankʼs shadow to save him just in case something happens that he does not see. The Storm Chasm is popular for mages as it has the rare Storm Guard monster that is a natural created golem.

The created golem is a subject for research for all magic related players as they also want to know how they came to be. This is popular research due to the fact that creation of golems like them without much preparation is a skill that all wants to have. In fact, there is a popular player that has the hidden job class of Golem Mage which lets a mage summon any golem from the area they are in.

”Just make sure to pace yourself as we move deeper in the dungeon. I will protect you along with my soulbounds but that does not mean that you should let your guard down. We do not know what will happen at the end of this dungeon since they are unpredictable after all.” Adrian stated as he is worried that something unexpected might happen.

”Yes. I was just enjoying myself since there are not a lot of times where I can freely defeat monsters like this. The previous players that I would hire would usually just let me be in the party while they slay the monsters. I usually just supply them with potions in order to make sure that they do not die while leveling me up.” Piggy Bank stated.

”If that was the case then you should have told them that you wanted to fight to. I am sure that you also have your warrior class skills before your job class was converted to merchant. You are using those golden knuckles like a real warrior.” Adrian stated as he could clearly see that Piggy Bank knows how to pull his weight in terms of a fight.

”Well, I have already gotten a lot of wealth and pulled my family up from poverty thanks to the opportunity that came. I just thought that I should not be too greedy or else it might be taken away just as fast as I got them.” Piggy Bank stated as he felt that luck poured onto him greatly, but he is also just as afraid of it running out.

”Luck may have been a part of your success, but you must never discount the fact that you achieved it with your determination as well. You might have entered this game to become rich, but I think deep down you also want to go on adventures just like any ordinary player.” Adrian stated which made Piggy Bank teary eyed, but the latter held it in.

”Thanks a lot, Guild Master Equinox. You really are built to be a leader with the way you can handle speeches.” Piggy Bank stated as he smiled.

”Okay then. Enough praises and worries as there are now ten Storm Guards here with us in this floor.” Adrian stated as he pointed out that a lot of enemies spawned.

The continuous fight of Piggy Bank with Adrianʼs continued as they defeated the Storm Guards with ease. Well, only Adrian had it with ease because Piggy Bank was almost dead tired after defeating them. Adrian would only use space magic to teleport Piggy Bank out of the way or time magic to slow the enemies down.

If a hit would occur, Adrian would cover Piggy Bank with a shell of force to negate the impact.

Adrian was fighting while making sure that he is reading the Spell Harmony skill book. He is obeying the instructions of the skill book or scroll. He needs to have the finesse in manipulating the elements to the point that he would get the intended effect just by imagining it. This created the situation where he is now the one actively supporting Piggy Bank in the dungeon instead of Wisteria.

”It also says here that I should be able to summon the element of my choosing while casting other elements. Basically, dual casting them, which is incredibly difficult since time, space, or even force is volatile.” Adrian thought as he continued to practice.

Adrian would create a sphere of temporal magic on his left hand while he uses his right hand to direct spatial magic that protects Piggy Bank. If he uses temporal magic to help Piggy Bank, then he would use spatial magic to create a sphere. This is the training that he thought of when presented with a way to unlock the skill.

Even though, the sphere of temporal or spatial magic is not stable and would pop which created a ripple in time or a small crack in space.

”I need to be able to use both without one getting destroyed. It is the key in using Origin Magic after all.” Adrian thought as he practiced well while protecting Piggy Bank.

The two of them were in the dungeon for two hours now but the end was still not in sight. Adrian had read about the Storm Chasm as an easy dungeon, but he could tell that it has changed. If this was an easy dungeon then he would not have saved Piggy Bank ten times from attacks. The Storm Guards that are hunks of rocks connected together by lightning should not be that coordinated.

”They are moving as if something is controlling them. Do not tell me that the dungeon changed because of the quest. Maybe I am just overthinking it, but I have felt a very uncomfortable stare the moment we entered this dungeon.” Adrian thought.

”Can we rest for a bit before moving to a lower level? I am already too tired to move my body as my stamina is almost depleted.” Piggy Bank stated as he defeated fifteen Storm Guards with Adrianʼs support.

”Wisteria, carry him while we descend to the next level. I am having this feeling that we should conquer this dungeon as fast as we can. Here chew on this energy bar that Levin Cloud created from his apothecary training.” Adrian stated as he gave Piggy Bank a snack to recover his stamina.

”I think I now know why all of the Pantheon Guild members looked at me with worry when I said that their guild leader will help me. He has such spartan training methods.” Piggy Bank thought as he chewed on the energy bar even if he did not have much energy to chew.

Meanwhile, outside the dungeon of Storm Chasm…

”Huh?! Why is it locked down? I traveled all the way here to see and observe those golems, but the dungeon is not allowing anyone to enter. Also, why is there a dense shrubbery closing the door?” A mage player grumbled as he was studying the art of golem creation.

”Maybe, the dungeon is bugged which is why it is closed, and we cannot enter. Let us just hunt on the other dungeons here.” The party member of the mage player stated.

”I guess so as the dungeon would open but I will still send a support ticket.” The mage player stated as they left for another dungeon.
